  1. I've been up to my waist in water at ohope fishing when a school of hammer head swam past my legs. The largest of which might have been 4 foot long, that was freaky enough for me
  2. kernow-webhosting.com just $9.95 USD I use it to host mandrakeusers.org which pulls a hefty 50gigs per month and have never had any problems
  3. simple dog psycology. I am the biggest fish in the tank, no one comes near me unless they want a beating I also have a giant gourmai that is 1.5 feet long, I had to slap here in the fac e twice before she learnt that I am the big fish. My arowana, I had to scare once, and now he knows When I'm in the tank, everybody hides, and I don't get bitten
  4. jansens are the only ones with them. and they are de-sexed so they can't breed
  5. boil it. I boiled my wood for about 5 hours
  6. I had to seperate them during feeding, but other than that they got on really well

  10. 1. I try to avoid climbing in .. I'm not sure the base glass would withstand concentrated pressure like my foot ... instead I use my opposing thumb, and use tools 2. punch them .. you think I'm joking don't you ... I have a giant gourami, and a silver arowana, both attack during cleaning, and they get swatted ... I have severums that like to chew on my hair when it falls in the tank 3. don't know 4. size matters :lol:

  12. I'm pretty sure that clown knife and arowana used to be mine

  15. http://www.aquajapan.com/encyc/characin ... tus_e.html Latin Name Distichodus sexfasciatus Common Name "Sixbar Distichodus" Origin Central Africa Size 70cm
  16. Crikey !! One is enough ! .. .they grow to 2 foot long 8) I'm told I can expect it to get 1 foot long in about 6 months
  17. new fish today http://www.elmersaquarium.com/10distichodus.htm
  18. use a sump big enough so that if the power fails, the sump can fill without overflowing I have 1000litres, pumping 4500 l/hr, using a 200litre sump with a precisely measured fill line. meaning I never EVER fill the sump above the fill line (which is about 3/4 full). that way if the power fails the sump will fill but not overflow
  19. yep both mine and a little too large to mix with my 27cm arow
  20. well on sunday I went to Wairau park, silverdale, and three kings. Nothing f interested that would fi t my tank at all what other parts of the country ? is there something for sale somewhere that is at least 6 inches long and will mix with an arowana? I'd love a Borneo Tiger that 6 inches or a lung fish maybe
  21. 1000 litres I guess the knifefish is still doing wel tehn
  22. In decmeber I sold a "huge" silver arowana .. and an ever "huge-er" knife fish to jansens. I delivered them to the North shore/Albany shop ... Well today I got a phone call from jansens, saying the fish are well, and I should come and spend my $400 that they are giving me for the 2 fish 8) so I am hoping that you guys will be able to help me. I want a new tank mate or mates for my tank at home, which at the moment has 1 silver arowana 27cms long, and one giant gourami that is 30cms long .. and redspot pleco that is 37cms Joel from Jansens North shore mentioned the existence of a Large Borneo tiger .. .that would be cool .. ... if you guys in Auckland have seen anything else that would fit my tank, and is interesting/rare/different I would love to hear your comments cheers TA
